Backup your theme directory first. Extract the zip file and rename "gnome-shell" directory to "theme" and copy to /usr/share/gnome-shell/. This path is usually where GNOME Shell is installed. Restart GNOME Shell by Alt, F2, then type r and press enter.
You can use the gnome-shell theme extension for easier installation of themes.
Notes:
This theme is compatible with GNOME Shell 3.0.
Added support for the gnome-tweak-tool for easy theme switching.
Really like this one ---- but --- all the drop down bubbles - the calendar, the system menu etc. are *too transparent* (for my taste) and I have spent considerable time (to no avail) to tweak this in gnome-shell.css - can anyone point me to the line of code to tweak this?
The look is fine if there is nothing in the workspace but if I have a browser window open (for example) it shines through the drop down bubbles which I find annoying.
What is the piece of code in gnome-shell.css that controls the opacity/transparency of the dropdown system menu and the calendar? I feel like I've tried everything and can't get the opacity to change, yet if I change themes obviously it does change, so it *must* be controlled by gnome-shell.css, right?
turns out its a text colour issue. the text is black but only on the 2nd monitor.
explicitly specifying color: under .window-caption, resolves this issue, and also the theme preview in fmurphy's theme selector (which also suffers from the same black text issue)
